1 Compiled from the Statistical Abstract of the United States, Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce, 

 Department of Commerce. Data for production for years ending June 30, 1904, 1905, and 1906, include cane- 

 sugar production as estimated by Willet & Gray, which figures are lower than the estimates of Bouchereau, 

 which are used in Tables 1 and 4, of this circular. If Bouchereau's estimates were substituted for Willett & 

 Gray's in the above table, the figures for 1904, 1905, and 1906, respectively, would be: For production, 

 1,037,309,087, 1,314,226,430, and 1,407,041,228 pounds; and for consumption per capita, 69.02, 72.21, and 75.92 

 pounds. See also note 2, Table 1. 



2 Revised figures; substituted for the preliminary figures given in the original.
